Ciao Dario, Su internet se ne leggono tante, io ho letto che il telaio GIORDANA che possiedo FORSE era stato fatto da te. Chissà se è vero... In cuor mio mi piace crederlo. Non so ad oggi quale sia il tuo stato di salute, ma ti auguro tutto il bene. Anzi mi piacerebbe che tu mi rispondessi: "Vaffanculo, è storia vecchia!!! Ora sto da leoni!". Ti abbraccio, e in bocca al lupo, Valentina

Dario, I have followed your work forever, and I just took the plunge for a Big Leg Emma (my cycling dream). You are a very special person, and I wish (pray) you the very best. God's speed............

Dario, Hello! I'm a new rider that lives out side of San Francisco. I just started looking a custom bikes and came across your beautiful frames. While doing my research on your frame I came across this article. I want to let you know that I've been raising money with the local charity called The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. Also know as Team In Training. With Team In Training we do Century's (100 miles rides), Tri's, and Marathons to raise money for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. I just want to wish you the best of luck. Regards, Erin Ryan from San Francisco

Dario - I'm a musician first and a budding cyclist second. I wanted you to know that despite my ignorance of the mechanics of making bicycles, I can indeed see something in your shapes, your paint that has an inherent quality of passion. I certainly don't believe that an inanimate object can have a soul, but I think that that object can reflect the soul of the person (or people) who made it. In that light, your work and your drive was immediately apparent to me, and I thought you might want to know that it doesn't take a trained eye to see what you've made. Lymphoma cannot affect the mark you have made, nor can it solely deprive you of your will to continue. Keep it up.

Dario: My current life ambition is to further my love of cycling, into its heart and soul. I have been trying to make my body understand that I want it to go fast but it is not easy nor simple. It takes time. I believe you are the most interesting and artistic frame builder I have ever seen. I would like to buy one of your frames in the near future but I'm having a difficult time choosing my first. I'm sure you understand. I don't expect you to respond to my message, but I want you to know that your work inspires me to be better, to be appreciative of the art of frame building and to be my best. I hope you are well, and happy. I will think of you as I train and ride.

Dario, Craig at Competitive Cyclist built up a Love #3 for me. I named it Uccello because I learned a few words of Italian a few years back and love birds. I wanted to ride a work of art and I'm riding Uccello with passion. Thank you for your passion and art.
